[Mouth oepning limitations due to coronoid-zygomatic-malar interference].

Interferences between coronoid process and bone walls of the zygomatic arch should always be considered among the causes of extra-ankylotic mouth-opening limitation. With the exception of traumatic cases, the event is rare and once correct diagnosis has been made there are excellent opportunities for treatment, largely of surgical nature. The zygomatic-malar area or coronoid process will be operated on depending on the case. When surgery has involved the coronoid process it is advisable to follow up with an adequate period of mechanotherapy.

[Functional disturbances of the inferior alveolar nerve following sagittal osteotomy of the ramus mandibulae: preventive surgical technic].

Permanent functional disturbances of the inferior alveolar nerve after sagittal osteotomy of the ramus of the mandible form an increasingly common feature of the reported series. Reference is made to earlier experimental research in a description of a preliminary series in which this complication was avoided by cleaving the two cortical substances with a thin cement spatula used as a scalpel. The results were extremely encouraging. There were no reports of permanent functional disturbances of the alveolar nerve, while the incidence of temporary defects was also reduced.
